- Steve Jackson: What's in there?
- Madame Zenobia: Happiness. Or, sadness.
- Wardell Franklin: What do you mean by that?
- Madame Zenobia: Why don't you go back there and find out? And, Mr. Jackson, you behave yourself, hear?
- Wardell Franklin: That was the hardest-hittin', fastest, baddest little black man of colored descent, I have ever seen in my life.

- Wardell Franklin: Rotten, boring, and underpaid, but thank you, Jesus.

- Wardell Franklin: Yeah - and no. I dropped some people off with the cab, but there be some fine mamas comin' in that place.
- Steve Jackson: Now listen here, you all, I'm looking fo a corny little runt named Seymour Petigreau. I know you're in here, Seymour, so come on out! I hear you're so ugly - till the sun refuse to shine every time you come out. You're so ugly - till it's against the law in 20 states to marry you.
- Wardell Franklin: Yeah, that's it, Steve. You're cooking. You keep on talking. He's in here somewhere and just remember, I got your back. And dig, say something about his Mama.
